Designed and Made By Chris Alsop in his workshops in Derbyshire, UK. This is our diamond fret crowning file with Oak handle (TF085) and our softwood neck rest (TA005).
Frets need to be rounded to remove the flat tops after levelling, or when you dress frets to remove wear grooves. A rounded fret top is best achieved by using a rounded file ! The long neck rest (or caul) has a shaped cork surface (4mm thick) attached to a solid wood block made from RedWood Pine. The back of a guitar neck sits in a stable position on the cork. The cork provides an excellent surface that will not scratch the guitar and will not allow the guitar to slip. There is also a layer of cork on the base of the caul. | ||||||

Diamond Files & Finishing Effort | ||||||
We have used a oak handle which is used in many of our other fretting tools. Diamond Files are really the best surfaces developed by mankind for abrasion - the resulting surface is by far the smoothest hand filed surface possible - hence less finishing and polishing! | ||||||
